The Bay Tree Café
403 Great Western Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G4 9HY
This West End stalwart has long been popular with those looking for something a bit different. While the city offers more in this vein today, the Bay Tree remains a favourite of vegetarians and vegans (it was once completely meat-free). It draws…
Ben Ledi Café (Mhor Fish)
75-77 Main Street,
Callander,
Stirlingshire,
FK17 8DX
Owned and run by well-known foodie folk in Stirlingshire, the Lewis family - who also own the Monachyle Mhor in Balquhidder - Ben Ledi Café will make sure you're well fed and watered on your visit to scenic Callander. Welcomed by grand Ben Ledi as you…
Bigos
277 Leith Walk, Leith,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8PD
With its honest home-cooking, Bigos, the capital's first Polish restaurant, has set the bar high for any competition. Brothers Tadeusz and Dariusz Krzysiak named the place after their national dish (a stew of sauerkraut, meat and mushrooms), and, with…
Bonsai
46 West Richmond Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DZ
Although hidden in a side street in something of a Southside dining no man's land, this little restaurant does a roaring trade from lunchtime till late. Bonsai's owners, Andrew and Noriko Ramage, offer a wide range of authentic Japanese dishes at very…
Brazilian Sensation
117-119 Buccleuch Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9NG
Brazilian Sensation may be of modest size with a laid-back café ambience, but it's a place of unique culinary delights. The lunch menu features a wide selection of hot snacks, organic rolls and baguettes at bargain prices, as well as some invigorating…
Chop Chop
248 Morrison Street, West End,
Edinburgh,
EH3 8DT
It's impossible to miss Chop Chop's bright yellow and red façade, and the décor inside is equally vibrant. The practical tables, paper napkins and simple Chinese art are subtle hints that perhaps the food is this venue's major draw. Guidance notes on…
La Cuchara Negra
3 Grove Street, West End,
Edinburgh,
EH3 8AF
La Cuchara Negra (the black spoon) has been something of a work in progress since it opened in spring 2006, and with lunchtime trading planned for mid-2007, this tiny Latin American restaurant is showing it has a big heart. There's no trace of a tacky…
Empires
24 St Mary's Street, Old Town,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1SU
It's hard to define Empires, a Turkish café-cum-ceramic shop, but this quirky, chaotic little place has an exotic charm all of its own. Downstairs, an eclectic mix of artworks, wall-hangings, ceramics and trinkets bathe in the glow of colourful…
The Forest
3 Bristo Place, Old Town,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1EY
As bland identikit bars and bistros proliferate around the capital, it's a comfort to know there are still a few scruffy, independent and idiosyncratic hang-outs like The Forest left in town. A self-funded artists' collective with a relaxed café run by…
Grassroots Café
93-97 St Georges Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 6JA
With little separating guests from cooks, Grassroots rather resembles a farmhouse kitchen, where the chefs dart back and forth at the range in one corner while aromatic smells drift towards diners. Flagstone floors and wooden furniture add to the rustic…
Hanam's
13a Brougham Street, Tollcross,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9JS
A relatively recent addition to Edinburgh's culinary map, Hanam's already commands a loyal following, thanks to proprietor Jamal Ahmed, who works hard to create an authentic Kurdish dining experience. While this extends to dressing in Kurdish costume…
Hanedan
41 West Preston Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9PY
The first thing you see when you step inside this delightful authentic Turkish restaurant is the grinning face of owner and chef Gursel Bahar in his open kitchen, radiating confidence throughout this tight little operation. A handful of tables are…
Howies
208 Bruntsfield Place, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4DH
This Edinburgh-borne 'chain' of restaurants is justifiably now a household name for reasonably-priced, good quality Scottish cuisine. With outlets near the Royal Mile, Southside and the East and West End (as well as in Aberdeen and St Andrew's) they are…
Howies
10-14 Victoria Street, Old Town,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2HG
This Edinburgh-borne 'chain' of restaurants is justifiably now a household name for reasonably-priced, good quality Scottish cuisine. With outlets near the Royal Mile, Southside and the East and West End (as well as in Aberdeen and St Andrew's) they are…
Howies at Waterloo
29 Waterloo Place, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3BQ
This Edinburgh-borne 'chain' of restaurants is justifiably now a household name for reasonably-priced, good quality Scottish cuisine. With outlets near the Royal Mile, Southside and the East and West End (as well as in Aberdeen and St Andrew's) they are…
Howies West End
1a Alva Street, West End,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4PH
This Edinburgh-borne 'chain' of restaurants is justifiably now a household name for reasonably-priced, good quality Scottish cuisine. With outlets near the Royal Mile, Southside and the East and West End (as well as in Aberdeen and St Andrew's) they are…
Izzi
119 Lothian Road, West End,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9AN
With its floor-to-ceiling glass frontage onto Lothian Road, and its minimalist interior décor, Izzi has a cool atmosphere that is a little intimidating at first. However, once you're seated by brisk, friendly staff who are happy to explain the somewhat…
Jade Garden
303 Sauchiehall Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 3HQ
The narrow stair up from Sauchiehall Street and the dark wood of the bar area gives no indication of the calm pastel décor that greets visitors to Jade Garden's dining room. Tables for two by the windows let customers watch the world go by in the street…
Kail Yard Green
599 Dumbarton Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G11 6HY
At one time every croft in Scotland would have its kail yard or vegetable patch - the very name of the restaurant itself hints at a dedication to imaginative Scots cuisine. Stark white painted walls and a fine selection of vivid paintings don't quite…
Lanna Thai
32 Bridge Street, Musselburgh,
Edinburgh,
East Lothian,
EH21 6AG
Taking its name from an ancient northern Thai kingdom, this family-run restaurant goes beyond its native boundaries to offer a menu ranging from the hot gaeng par jungle curries of the remote, rural north, to the typically milder, coconut-laced gaeng…
Magda
6 Brougham Street, Tollcross,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9UH
A sweet, unassuming little neighbourhood favourite, Magda has captured the hearts of its Tollcross regulars since it opened in early 2006. Even midweek, the restaurant hums along at a nice pace, catering mostly to families and smaller groups. The…
Neelim
1590 Dumbarton Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G14 9DB
Located in a more modest part of the West End, Neelim has become an integral part of the Indian dining scene, managing to lure locals and others willing to travel to Scotstoun for some excellent cooking and low prices. Though the interior is basic, with…
The New York Steam Packet
31 Rose Street Lane North, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2NP
Hidden down a side alley off Rose Street, and accessed via a dinky spiral staircase, New York Steam Packet is certainly not as brash as some of its more heavily-marketed American dining cousins. In fact, there's a distinct French influence here, with a…
Phenecia
55-57 West Nicolson Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DB
After two decades in the business, Phenecia has perfected the formula of combining wholesome fare with super-low prices. And its relaxed atmosphere and location, right in the middle of Edinburgh's university quarter, attracts the students in droves. The…
Susie's Wholefood Diner
51-53 West Nicolson Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DB
Susie's keeps things simple and cheap, excelling at feeding wholesome food to hungry people as it has done for over a decade. Tucked among the studenty hang-outs and shops of West Nicholson Street, its premises are calm and homely - window seats, pale…
